As above. Could save me some time in trial & error. TIA!

lol i can tell u tt my 20L pail needs ard 7 big scoops of salt to hit 1.024-1.025 but prob not gonna help right?

Just mix for the first few times and you can roughly estimate how much salt u need

Mixing

Using a clean container.

- Add 1 Kg of H2Ocean+ to 24.2 litres of water ( 1 Lb to 2.9 U.S. Gallons)

- Mix well until all of the salt is dissolved and the solution is clear.

for me,

1 box of distilled water = 18L, so i use 750gm of salt but i find the salinity is higher than desired, therefore, i use around 700-720gm

Lol... thanks guys! I'm looking more towards Oni's reply... things that I could quantify without actually measuring it. However, I do not have the Grotech nor NLS containers. Anyone else using more common containers to measure?

bro

can use those normal pails (red or blue) in toilet using approximately around the same.

my SG is around 1.024 ~ 1.025 on the mix.

the capacity is around the same.

can use one NLS container for one pail, mix 1 night,then measure,from there onwards can judge how much to use le (thats how i did it for the first time)

any bro with more common containers can chip in

[pokmingsheng]

i use disposable plastic cups...

those that are used during BBQs...

but of cos i dont dispose after i use,

i'll reuse it...

Pro lah, bro! I'll pick one up when I visit a Daiso outlet the next time!

It is only in the reefing hobby that you would see guys going for kitchen stuff in stores! (other than chefs & bakers!)

fresh n marine..online store....as far as i know...iwarna is selling at $35 for 6.6kg tub..usual is $45 for 6.6kg

since u stay west side...alternative saltmix of similar quality comparable to D&D is brightwell aquatics at ML..but price wise is higher

end of the day, u cannot have best of both worlds...cheap n good, probably not...reasonable n good..perhaps..

get them from the farms...cheapest over there liao...only thing is the distance...

Red sea is the cheapest $15 for 4kg follow by reef crystals at $18 for 4kg...but i tried red sea before...one word to describe it...suk...

[dnsfpl]

after reading, not gonna use reef crystals as they require addition cal &

maybe will take ur pick D&D or stick to oceanic
